The Sea of Galilee and the Mt. of Beatitudes (the small hill at center
right, just to the right of the area with the tall green trees by the water).

I think you
would agree with me that the world is a mess right now. I ran across the statistic this week that
there are conflicts going on in all the countries of the world except eleven! That’s terrible. And
some of these are truly horrific, like what is happening in Iraq and Syria with
ISIS (or IS). How does Jesus want us to
respond to times like these?

I’m sure you’ve
noticed in this recent conflict between Israel and Hamas how polarizing the
nation of Israel is. People are either
strongly for Israel or against it. For
few other conflicts in the world do you get such large demonstrations
everywhere as there were recently. Why
is this? Why does Israel make people so upset? And of course the Muslim world is constantly
angry at Israel, and constantly plotting its destruction. Why is this?

Why
do Christians believe that Jesus is God?Is it because he healed people?Other great men of Israel also healed people.Is it because he raised Lazarus from the
dead?The bones of Elijah also raised a
man from the dead.Is it because he
ascended into heaven?Enoch and Elijah
were also taken up by God into heaven.What
makes Jesus different than all these others?
